“Well it just goes to show that age isn't everything and malt isn't everything either. I had the opportunity to first sample this at a whisky tasting event and was blown away by it. Huge care has been taken in sourcing the right grains and the right casks and it absolutely delivers on flavour. Love it!”

Description

Bristol's Circumstance distillery fired up its stills back in 2018, and this English single grain was produced just a year later. Matured in a bourbon barrel for three years between 2019 and 2023, here is an exciting opportunity to experience what's on offer from the young Brizzle distillery, and a sure sign of good things to come. A total of 268 bottles join our exclusive Master of Malt collection.

Nose

Sweet, tropical fruits and vibrant barley are backed by buttery oak and vanilla.

Palate

Notes of soft stone fruits, sweet apples, and a touch of banana join vanilla cream and mellow oak char.

Finish

Softly sweet tickles of warming spice join for the finish, with lingering notes of juicy barley and butterscotch.

Amazing flavour delivery for its age.

Well it just goes to show that age isn't everything and malt isn't everything either. I had the opportunity to first sample this at a whisky tasting event and was blown away by it. Huge care has been taken in sourcing the right grains and the right casks and it absolutely delivers on flavour. Love it!

Super!

A super sweet whisky well worth the money!

Is 3 years the new 12?

Although actually closer to 4 years in age, the brief few years this whisky has spent maturing in quality bourbon casks belies an amazing depth of flavour and remarkable complexity. The tasting notes above are spot on but I also detect a little poached pear and lemon curd citrus sweetness alongside the tropical fruit and oaky notes. I'd hazard a guess it's 100% barley with the long fermentation times lending a flavour profile akin to the recent awesome Loch Lomond Distillery Editions.
